Big Bend Open Road Race
Well I was glad to see 3 other Nissan's showed this year..another '04 350 and two '09 GT-R's..along with two new ZR1's and the regular gallardo etc etc..
I had a blast and ran the southbound leg at an average speed of 125.89 MPH, top speed being my tech of 140 mph...I don't like the way the car handles at 140 and will DEFINITELY be in the market for a front lip/splitter and a spoiler/ wing for the rear. It feels REAL light at 140!
I do absolutely LOVE the bfg kdw's I bought and put on the car..they stick like glue and am very happy. I wanted the r888's but they don't make them in my size..bummer.
So long story short...I placed this year! and brought home a third place trophy! After driving the south leg I was 28 seconds fast..I recalculated that with the 28.32 it takes to drive 59 miles at 125mph. and set up for the northbound run...I crossed the finish @ 138mph and hit the stop button...I couldn't believe after looking at the timer it read 00.00!!!!!
Final time was +1.3 SECONDS!!!! unbelievable...and what's crazy is that was 3rd place in that class! 1st was .372- 2nd was .723+ and I was 1.3 sec.
It was a blast, I acutally caught and passed the car in front of me at nearly 140 in the straight and have awesome video of it..there were two cameras on my car this year and after its all edited I'll post it..

besides you have NEVER SEEN A RACIST OR ANTI-SEMETIC post from ME.
and if deploring homos and what they stand for makes me a homophobe..so be it.
I think I need a new bumper...the front right was chewed away..lol no flat though..just got this via email..its at 140mph...this was one out of 16 photos taken as I was approaching..
Congrats on the results! I do need to run that race sometime.
